Since Wind River has stopped supporting FreeBSD, this seems a bit out of place. I would suggest that either replace those links with links to another vendor, or just have no link and tell people to search for a supplier. I'm providing patches for the former, rather than the latter, as I think links are a) kinder to the end user, and b) the Daemon News folks are actually interested in contributing back to the community. I don't care which is done, I would just like to suggest that either is more appropriate than what we're doing now. >How-To-Repeat: This is my first stab at including two patches in a single file, so it might very well not behave well. Seems to work for me, on my badly mutilated -doc tree. :) >Fix: *** en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/book.sgml-dist Wed Nov 7 14:03:48 2001 --- en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/book.sgml Wed Nov 7 14:18:56 2001 *************** *** 87,95 **** url="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/">FreeBSD FTP server or one of the numerous mirror sites.
